[Verse 1]
Emaj7                               F#m7
Have you ever chased the night that sailed in front of you
Emaj7                                 F#m7
On a boat that's bound for hope - but left you in the queue
     B                               C#m7
With your shouting, waving, taunting, flaunting friends as crew
Bm7                            F#m7
Telling you that every lie you ever heard was true
Em7                                      D           C#
Have you stood upon that dock - have you ever had it blue.

[Verse 2]
Emaj7                          F#m7
Have you ever woke to find the morning didn't come
Emaj7                         F#m7
Undelivered with the papers - stolen by someone
        B                              C#m7
Found the milkman bound and gagged and shackles ' round the sun
        Bm7                      F#m7
And the holder of the keys turns out to be the one
    Em7                                       D
The girl you had your heart set on - have you ever had it blue.
         Em7
Have you ever had it blue
         D           C#
Have you ever had it blue

[Verse 3]
Emaj7                          F#m7
Have you ever watched the day, passing by your door
Emaj7                                F#m7
Powerless to change its course, your feet fixed to the floor
     B                                       C#m7
When all the people you thought you knew are changing more and more
         Bm7                          F#m7
Even the girl you thought would see, seems only to ignore
    Em7                                     D
The only love worth fighting for - have you ever had it blue
Em7
ever had it blue
D           C#
ever had it blue

repeat to fade
